Commit Bit and Project Resources Policy

Rationale

The core team manages access to project resources including
granting and revoking both commit bits and user accounts. Core
may delegate portions of these tasks to other groups or
individuals at its discretion. For example, certain commit bits
are managed by other groups as noted
in Commit
Bit Types subject to core's final approval. The core team has
held this authority since its inception, but wanted to make it
explicit to avoid confusion. The FreeBSD Core team approved the
following commit bit and project resources policy which was posted
to the Developers mailing list on August 4, 2011.

Policy

The core team has sole authority for managing access to project
resources. This includes granting and revoking both commit bits
and user accounts.
